I like how there's masses of very faint stars from the LMC in the top right corner versus the relative darkness of deep space on the left.

Hi Bill, that a great image. I agree with about the masses of faint stars setting of the darkness it really does make the image.

Top stuff

Bill,

Nicely done!

It looks just like the one I took using Louie Atalasidis Williams Optics 105 triplet.

I also love the haze of the Large Magellanic Cloud in the top right.
